my question is:

wood? i want one thats cheap but hard so i dont have to break a shaft before spring cuz of the lack of cashflow. the only one that i have found is on ebay and my coach has one and i dont like it, too light, and i dont wanna copy he'd make fun of me. I really want a training shaft for cheap. What companies sell wood? and for under $50?

I'm not the hugest fan of warrior, but you're probably better off just getting one of these. It is heavy, and less breakable than wood.

Harrow has some wood shafts, but I don't know the cost. I still play with a Crooked Arrow wooden shaft which I love, but the company is no longer around.

Harrow sells a wood shaft - $25. Not way heavy, and I haven't played rough with it, so I don't know how it would hold up.

mind change...

Postby danza on Mon Jul 31, 2006 8:30 pm

So I have changed my mind. I am going to instead pool my money and get a new shaft that I can actually use.
I have decided on trying something new. I'm buying a carbon fiber shaft from goss lacrosse. i don't know if it will break or if it sucks or anyhting i just want something different. im sick of crappy technology from corporate companies with no concern for the game. If there is any money left over i might get a wood shaft from the local store that i found out has a few. Thanks fellas. And check out goss lacrosse, i was impressed.
